NFL Insider: Russell Wilson Didn't 'Even Slightly Indicate He Could Lose' to Fields

Russell Wilson appears to be far and away the clubhouse leader for the Pittsburgh Steelers' starting quarterback job.

Mark Kaboly of The Athletic reported Wilson "did nothing through 12 practices to even slightly indicate he could lose the quarterback competition to Justin Fields" during OTAs and minicamp.

Wilson, who signed a one-year contract for the veteran's minimum this offseason, has widely been expected to be the starter in 2024. The future Hall of Famer is being paid $38 million by the Denver Broncos this season after being released by the team in March, giving the Steelers a chance to pounce and revamp their quarterback room.
